Re: truck manifold single t76 *update 3 intercooler in*
My father had overheating problem too with his 350. He put an electric fan and the problem is gone. (almost gone) Maybe its the same fan as yours because he have a dc controler too and pushing a lot of cfm

Re: truck manifold single t76 *update 4 parts arriving*
New member here driving a 2001 GMC C3 with a h/o 6.0. Very similar engine i beleive only a part or two difference and some computer tuning. I'm looking at installing a rear mount turbo running 4-6 PSI. What kind of turbo will you be running, and at what kind of PSI? Like the rust on the car it makes it that much more of a sleeper so you can surpise the crap out of some 4-cyl import with $5,000 in paint alone.

Your best bet seeing how I havn't researced rear mounts a lot... is to go to the forced induction section of ls1tech. There are rear mount guys in the 1000rwhp range!!!

. Can't wait to see it ripping!!! BTW why did you keep it auto? Couldn't you run a ls1 6speed trans?

Re: truck manifold single t76 *update 4 parts arriving*
Why? Because its cheaper and more efficient to manually shift my 80e.
I managed to get all of the injector clips converted over to ls1 car style for the motron 60lb injectors.
Also got the harness/car converted from MAF to Speed Density. IAT is now wired in and have the fast log IAT sensor.
Got my metal order in from Racing Solutions.
I got some of the drivers side hot side down today. Tacked up.
Another shot.
thats it for now.

? Ok I can see if it was a drag only car and had a trans break.I like a stick in my civic becauase its slow and it feels "quick" when I abuse the ---- out of it. The chevelle is a competely different feeling. Its a "hold the ---- on" and keep it on the road feeling. Its hard to explain. I prefer a manually shifted auto in this chevelle vs a standard.
I'd let you drive the car to get the feeling but thats a fair jont to do so
